Solar crunch time! Please review my plan.
I would like begin my first post with a big thank you to all who have shared their knowledge and experience on this forum. Without that, I probably wouldn't be entering the solar jungle! I hope yo...

We have LFP not LPo.
Manzanita Micro is almost entirely EV. We may be the only non-EV battery suite they have ever sold. I talked with their manager on phone and he said they could be charged at much lower temperatures than other LFP formulations but I am not about to find out the hard way. When we left the rig at son's place where it did get cold, the battery suite probably never went down more than 5% (-400 W-hr) so any charge rate was quite low. I think the problem is at high C charge rates which is not a solar problem (would that it were).
I would think that NASA quality batteries/cells are way beyond our piggy banks.
